This has been a pretty entertaining show. Negreanu's "Good luck-- I don't mean that but, y'know" when his JJ was racing with AKo all-in preflop was hilarious.

He prob. thought it was too murky a situation but IMO a coinflip for a shot to take out the dangerous Ivey is an irresistable opportunity, and Dave could certainly afford to make the call.

Re: *Official* WPT Borgata Poker Open thread
 

With an EP raise and allin reraise in front of you, TT is not a difficult hand to throw away.
